The kilobyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information. The International System of Units (SI) defines the prefix kilo as 1000 (103); therefore one kilobyte is 1000 bytes. The unit symbol for the kilobyte is kB. In information technology, particularly in reference to main memory capacity, kilobyte is traditionally used to denote 1024 (210) bytes.
By Geordie Wilson, Dave Birkland. Kurt Cobain, lead singer for the rock band Nirvana, was arrested June 4 for allegedly assaulting his wife, Courtney Love. Police reports described the incident as an argument over the presence of guns in the couple's North Seattle house that led to a pushing match.
Cobain was found dead in his home from an apparent shotgun wound. He had heroin and Valium in his body, and had been lying on the floor for days when police found him. I really enjoyed his music and wish heâd been able to give detox and drug rehab another shot. I wish drug rehab had been more helpful for him.
